Two tasty Tofu recipes for babies:
1. Steamed Tofu and prawns
Your toddler can gain protein form both Tofu and the prawns, what is more, the vitamin B12 and B6 helps your toddler producing the energy he or she requires for all daily activities. The minerals such as zinc and selenium strengthen the functioning of your child’s immune system. Note that babies shouldn't eat any seafood before they reach the age of one.
age: above 12 months
Ingredients:
- soft Tofu 4-5 ounces / 120g
- prawn 1 ounce / 20g chopped into small pieces
- some clear chicken soup
- Some drops Soy Sauce. When talking about Soy Sauce then there's only one choice: Kikkoman. Strong, full flavored with a soft finish. Have a look at what others say on Amazon, if you don't trust me ;-)
- Some drops of Sesame Oil
. I recommend you La Tourangelle's Sesame Oil (like all of their other oils) because it has a great flavor and comes at a small price.
How to cook:
1. Cut Tofu into small cubes
2. Put Tofu into a bowl, and put prawn pieces on top of the Tofu
3. Add some chicken soup, add a few drops of soy sauce and sesame oil
4. Steam until prawn is fully cooked using a Steamer. If you thanking about bying a Steamer then I'd recommend you to take a look at this one from Hamilton Beach.
It comes with several cooking modes, large containers for big portions and it is very easy to clean. Another big plus: It also features a function that keeps food warm once they are done cooking.
2. Steamed Tofu, egg and carrot
This is a very simple dish which only takes about 10 minutes to prepare.
Tofu is rich in Calcium which is good for your baby's bone development. The Vitamin D in egg yolk can help your baby's body to better absorb Calcium. This dish also contains a lot of Vitamins and minerals, which make it a very nutritious food for your baby's healthy growth.
- age: above 7 months
Ingredients:
- 2 ounces or 50 g Soft Tofu. Give Soft Tofu from Mori-Nu a try. It is of very high quality and can also be used for making pies, pudding and other dishes.
- Carrot 1 ounce / 30g
- one cooked egg yolk (which is taken out from a hard boiled egg)
- baby formula about 0.25 cups / 50ml (you can also use cow milk for children that are older than 12 months)
How to cook:
1. Put Tofu into boiling water and boil it for 5 minutes, then take it out to let drain the water
2. Peal the carrot, cut it into slices, steam it until soft using a Steamer. This Steamer offers several cooking modes and keeps food warm after it has being cooked. Check out the Amazon link to read full product description and customer reviews.
3. Use a hand Blender to mash Tofu, carrot and egg yolk. I use this Hand Blender
and really love using it because of its high quality and reliability. You can also use a Garlic Press
if you do not have a blender.
4. Mix the mashed Tofu, carrot and egg yolk with baby formula and it is ready!
